word document pages # consecutively, section page # individually
I would like to number all the pages in a word 2003 consecutively in the
header and number each document section or chapter independently in the footer. Example: top page center: - 12 - bottom page center: page 1 of section 2 I have tried inserting a section break and field codes in the footer Page {page} of section {section}. This works but forces the top page numbering back to 1. How can I accomplish this? Thanks for any help, Robert |

Hi Robert

This works but forces the top page numbering back to 1. How can I accomplish this? This gets a bit fiddly: Word can only count in one way, meaning: a PAGE field can only have one distinct value on a given page. This means that you need either to calculate the value in your header or in your footer. Also, all page references (like, in a TOC or an INDEX) will show exactly what the page field on that page will reflect. Depending on what you want to show there (the chapter/section page number or the book page number), your selection of which page number to calculate and which to show is given. Tell us which way you want to go, and we tell us how to setup your sections and how to calculate the other page numbers.
